This is the latest addition to the MASTER OF G MUDMASTER Series. Mud Resist construction helps to ensure that nothing gets into the watch when work gets dirty. Multiple gaskets are used on the pipes that guide buttons and shafts, which keeps mud out. In addition, Twin Sensor capabilities provide instant access to direction and temperature information when needed under tough conditions. The dial of the watch is marked with large Arabic numerals at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock for easy reading. The dial is illuminated by a Super Illuminator, high-brightness auto LED light to ensure high visibility under virtually any condition imaginable. The band surface is processed to resemble a cloth band texture, and the hour and minute hands are shaped with points that make them resemble warning markers. All buttons have a checkered surface for surer operation, and the overall design is tough and rugged. The watch is shock-resistant, water-resistant to 200 meters, mud-resistant, and includes a thermometer.

What is the difference between a quartz movement and a self-winding movement?

The normal daily action of moving your arm is sufficient to keep a self-winding movement activated or the watch can be placed in a watch winder to maintain accurate time. A quartz movement uses a vibrating quartz crystal that powers a small motor. A mercury-free battery supplies the electric current to the crystal at a constant rate. For most watches, the battery should be replaced once a year.

What does analog or digital mean?

Analog is a type of display that has a dial, hands, numbers or markers, subdials and sometimes a day or date window. The background can be patterned or plain to aid visibility or impart style to the design. This is the traditional watch face. A digital display usually has LED (light emitting diode) numbers and sometimes also shows a range of functions including elapsed time, date, alarms, speed, distance and even temperature. These watches are almost always battery powered, though there are also watches that use light instead of a battery.

What is a chronograph and how does it work?

The chronograph function is for measuring elapsed time, like a stopwatch. Chronograph movements are activated with one or more buttons near the crown, and the dial usually includes one or more subdials to show the fractions of a second or elapsed minutes or hours.

What's the difference between a watch bracelet and a watch band?

The term bracelet is generally used with a watch strap made of metal, such as stainless steel or titanium and fastens with a clasp. Many designs include links that flex easily with wrist movement, which makes them a popular choice for men's timepieces. These bracelets can be lengthened or shortened by adding or removing links.

Another metal bracelet design for women's watches uses a solid metal bangle that fastens with a jewelry clasp.

A band is often crafted of leather, patent leather or silicone rubber, and can be secured with either a buckle or a clasp. Both men's and women's watches use bands.

Both types of straps are interchangeable, some by the user, others by a watch repairman. Strap widths are measured in millimeters.
